## FUNCTIONS
    S_IFMT(...)
        Return the portion of the file's mode that describes the file type.

    S_IMODE(...)
        Return the portion of the file's mode that can be set by os.chmod().

    S_ISBLK(...)
        S_ISBLK(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a block special device file.

    S_ISCHR(...)
        S_ISCHR(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a character special device file.

    S_ISDIR(...)
        S_ISDIR(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a directory.

    S_ISDOOR(...)
        S_ISDOOR(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a door.

    S_ISFIFO(...)
        S_ISFIFO(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a FIFO (named pipe).

    S_ISLNK(...)
        S_ISLNK(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a symbolic link.

    S_ISPORT(...)
        S_ISPORT(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from an event port.

    S_ISREG(...)
        S_ISREG(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a regular file.

    S_ISSOCK(...)
        S_ISSOCK(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a socket.

    S_ISWHT(...)
        S_ISWHT(mode) -> bool

        Return True if mode is from a whiteout.

### filemode
        Convert a file's mode to a string of the form '-rwxrwxrwx'
